Apparently we don't have an archclean target in our
arch/parisc/Makefile, so files in there never get cleaned out by make
mrproper. This, in turn means that the sizes.h file in
arch/parisc/boot/compressed never gets removed and worse, when you
transition to an O=build/parisc[64] build model it overrides the
generated file. The upshot being my bzImage was building with a SZ_end
that was too small.
I fixed it by making mrproper clean everything.

Same as on x86-64, strip the .comment, .note and debug sections from the
Linux kernel before creating the compressed image for the boot loader.

Change the parisc vmlinuz boot code to include and process the real
compressed vmlinux.gz ELF file instead of a compressed memory dump.
This brings parisc in sync on how it's done on x86_64.
The benefit of this change is that, e.g. for debugging purposes, one can
then extract the vmlinux file out of the vmlinuz which was booted which
wasn't possible before. This can be archieved with the existing
scripts/extract-vmlinux script, which just needs a small tweak to prefer
to extract a compressed file before trying the existing given binary.
The downside of this approach is that due to the extra round of
decompression/ELF processing we need more physical memory installed to
be able to boot a kernel.

gcc-7 optimizes the byte-wise accesses of get_unaligned_le32() into
word-wise accesses if the 32-bit integer output_len is declared as
external. This panics then the bootloader since we don't have the
unaligned access fault trap handler installed during boot time.
Avoid this optimization by declaring output_len as byte-aligned and thus
unbreak the bootloader code.
Additionally, compile the boot code optimized for size.
